COLCHESTER commuters faced travel disruption after a bus company cancelled one of its rush-hour services... seemingly at the last minute.

First Bus Essex pulled its 7.55am route from Osbourne Street to Greenstead this morning, with an alert being published on social media minutes before the bus' scheduled arrival.

As a result of the cancellation school pupils, commuters and college students were left having to wait longer for their bus during rush-hour.

⚠️SERVICE UPDATE - S4⚠️

The below services will be unable to run today:

0755 Colchester - Greenstead

So sorry for any issues this may cause on your journey.
